The new and improved deployments API is capable of integrating with
GitHub and your continuous delivery pipeline so you can monitor your
web service deployments and test failures directly from GitHub pull
requests and other commit references.

The Assertible deployments API is designed to make it simple to
initiate automated API and web service integration tests directly
from a continuous integration and delivery pipeline.

Before our latest release, getting Assertible's GitHub status checks
and deployment events propogated to a repository was non-trivial and
required a complicated script or external integrator like Heroku.

We are happy to announce
our deployments API now directly
supports propogating creating GitHub deployment events and status
checks. These features are directly supported in the user interface
(see image above) and greatly enhance the experience of building web
service on GitHUb.

The only two requirements are:

The web service needs to be connected to a GitHub repo.

Use the github: true parameter in the POST body and a valid Git
SHA in the ref.

At Assertible, we collaborate on new features using pull
requests. We use Assertible to create GitHub status checks for
automated API tests against our temporary staging environments every
time someone pushes code.

We rely on this form of continuous testing to find bugs that are
difficult to create unit tests for and to make sure the different web
services integrate seamlessly. Additionally, we can jump directly to
QA environments after tests have run confident we won't hit
regressions that we have tests configured for.
